Longitudinal 5-branes as 4-spheres in Matrix theory
Judith Castelino, Sangmin Lee, Washington Taylor
We present a construction in Matrix theory of longitudinal 5-branes whose geometry in transverse space corresponds to a 4-sphere. We describe these branes through an explicit const…
Spherical membranes in Matrix theory
Daniel Kabat, Washington Taylor
We consider membranes of spherical topology in uncompactified Matrix theory. In general for large membranes Matrix theory reproduces the classical membrane dynamics up to 1/N corre…
Boundary fields and renormalization group flow in the two-matrix model
Sean Carroll, Miguel Ortiz, Washington Taylor
We analyze the Ising model on a random surface with a boundary magnetic field using matrix model techniques. We are able to exactly calculate the disk amplitude, boundary magnetiza…
Adhering 0-branes to 6-branes and 8-branes
Washington Taylor
A Yang-Mills solution is constructed on T^6 which corresponds to a brane configuration composed purely of 0-branes and 6-branes. This configuration breaks all supersymmetries and h…
Simulating quantum mechanics on a quantum computer
Bruce M. Boghosian, Washington Taylor
Algorithms are described for efficiently simulating quantum mechanical systems on quantum computers. A class of algorithms for simulating the Schrodinger equation for interacting m…
Quantum lattice-gas models for the many-body Schrodinger equation
Bruce M. Boghosian, Washington Taylor
A general class of discrete unitary models are described whose behavior in the continuum limit corresponds to a many-body Schrodinger equation. On a quantum computer, these models…
